Some parts of firebird - such as the control panel - can not be compiled
with the express version. If they have to display on the desk top then
one has to buy a copy of VC to compile them :(
Leave out those bits, and it should compile ... it's probably worth
posting a feature request that the windows build actually knows about it?
